Disquietude

On Tuesday November 8th, 2016. President Obama spoke to the American people and stated, “Have a good night, everybody,” said Obama. “And remember, no matter what happens, the Sun will rise in the morning and America will still be the greatest nation on Earth.” (BuzzFeedNews) On the morning of January 20th 2017, the day of the inauguration of Trump, I woke up and painted the sky before the sun rose. I have continued this ritual to ask that question, will the sun rise today? This is an on-going work, which will last four to eight years.
